Magik is Visual Basic

[anne]

Magik empowers developers and non-developers alike with the ability to easily
create fully functional Java applications. It’s a really sweet rapid application
development program that allows users to easily create complete Java applications
from raw code or library objects with a drag-and-drop ease of use similar
to that of Macromedia Dreamweaver or Director.

Magik also allows coders and UI designers to work together much more quickly
and effectively in existing development environments with features including
- reusable code
- object, and function libraries
- single click linking of functions and objects
- real-time working previews which don't require the user to compile each
time

Magik allows drag-and-drop importing of pre-existing Java code, data, multimedia
objects and interface elements, and one-click integration of web services
and other network-based objects. Essentially, it allows you to intuitively
create applications the same way you do just about everything else on your
desktop. Finished applications can be published to run as standalone Java
applications, or can be instantly translated to a variety of functionality-compatible
languages (such as Flash, DHTML, MPEG-4, or Microsoft C#) and platforms (such
as wireless and Palm devices, and consumer electronics hardware).

Magik was created by a team of software designers from Apple, Macromedia,
and the computer science department at Berkeley.

All very exciting. But went to the site and there were no prices which usually
means big bucks. I also couldn't find any demos or anything visual.

Yeah, this is great!

There is a free trial of the beta version being handed out at JavaOne, or
you can contact the company to get a copy.

So how much is it going to cost? I could contact the salesperson but I would
rather not unless I know I can afford it.

Glad for anyone who has the time to go to JavaOne. I'm supposed to be on
vacation in Hilton Head this week. I'm working instead. Guess I will have
to contact the company.
